The most famous beach is on Brac. The world's most imposing yachts are to be found off the coast and in the harbours of Hvar, the sun and lavender island, which could qualify as a new Saint-Tropez.

Also for the palate Croatia has much to offer: Fish, mussels, scampi and cuttle fish or calamari, and all fresh from the sea. Those who prefer meat will enjoy the local lamb or the Dalmatian ham.
